Barack Obama got an endorsement he long coveted on Wednesday, that of former North Carolina Senator and vice presidential candidate John Edwards. Hillary desperately wanted his endorsement too. I don't know what Edwards got in return, but I am sure he got a lot.
Resentment
Liberal blogger Arianna Huffington says that John McCain told her that he did not vote for President Bush in the 2000 election. Huffington claims McCain made the admission in 2001, at a dinner party held at actress Candice Bergen's Beverly Hills home. "West Wing" actors Bradley Whitford and Richard Schiff, who were also at the dinner party, say they also recall McCain saying he didn't vote for Bush. Well, in McCain's defense, the Bush people had just worked him over petty good.. .he probably wrote in "Satan" then vote for Bush.
Amazing
A Florida man was working at DRS Technologies last week when his arms became trapped in a large, press-like machine, so he shook his cell phone off his belt, kicked off one shoe and used his toe to dial 911. Now, there's a story for the next Indiana Jones movie.
Strange
In Whales this week, a man who dressed up as Darth Vader by wearing a garbage bag for a cape - then assaulting the founders of a group calling itself the Jedi church - was given a suspended sentence. Prosecutors say Arwel Wynne Hughes, who's 27, attacked Jedi church founder Barney Jones - aka Master Jonba Hehol - with a metal crutch, hitting him on the head. So now they both can go back living in their mother's basement.

It's an all-David final on "American Idol" as David Archuleta and David Cook will square off next week in the "Idol" finale. I wonder if one of these guys is the son of that crazy stage dad? Because if his son loses, this dad going to go off.
Money
"Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane has signed a new contract with 20th Century Fox TV that will make him the highest-paid writer-producer working in television. The deal could be worth more than $100 million. Apparently, there is a lot of money in objectionable animated characters.
False Report
The "Boston Herald" on Wednesday wrote that their Spygate story involving the New England Patriot's alleged videotaping the St. Louis Rams before Super Bowl was false. Like all false stories - they are retracted somewhere on page 97.
Upset
A representative for Jessica Simpson says that Simpson and NFL quarterback Tony Romo are still together despite rumors that they've split up. On Monday, "Star" magazine reported Romo spent a wild weekend with his college buddies and the fun led to a split between the couple. Do you know who'd be happy if they broke up? How about every fan of the Dallas Cowboys.
Old
Female boxing enthusiast Parvati (Par-va-tee) Shallow, who grew up on a commune in Florida, was the million-dollar winner this week of this season's "Survivor: Fans Vs. Favorites" on CBS. I was surprised and didn't realize that the show was still on the air.
